For example, if Caedes (Order) sees a nomad, he'll start firing without a single message as the Nomad players don't bother talking when they attack anyone else.
That's the most PvP'ish I get, Caedes doesn't enjoy killing humans so even if they're outcast or bounty hunters, he'll ask them to leave or give them some warning.
Aside from Nomads I don't think I've ever engaged another player first.
The rest of my characters are lawful/neutral as well so they won't fire first.
On the topic of PvP / RP I have to admit, I'm not sure what my law enforcers should do, do they ask for pirates to leave / surrender?
If a pirate is in a ship that isn't as good as my Avenger, they run, if they are in a gunboat they go right for me without any warning.
' Wrote:Gronath the merc, and then you have the pilot in the RM... who's your trader?
Why? So my trader and your pirate can tag along and have a little chat? As much as I am tempted by the possibility I won't tell you through the forum. Otherwise every pirate in Sirius would feel the urge to go and chat with him. I believe he can only afford so much such 'conversations'.
